Just arrived home from a beautiful wedding at Gallery 42. What a beautiful venue!! It was the perfect place for a smaller wedding. The artwork was amazing. 4 floors, at least, with beautiful sculptures and other media. Will definitely keep it in mind for any future small gatherings I might host!

Just had our wedding there last Saturday. Beautiful venue, wonderful owner! He’s super flexible and very sweet. It’s a little more on the pricey end, but it’s definitely worth it if your guest list is small! Thanks for everything Bill!

We had the best wedding night at Gallery. Bill made the whole process seamless and we loved every moment. He was so flexible, reliable, and just beyond helpful. We are SO glad we had our wedding here.

Awesome gallery! It was quite empty when I got there, and apparently you're supposed to use the buzzer to get in, but once you do it is amazing! They have a great collection of Ilić Boban's work, and Dali's woodcut prints of art for Divine Comedy. Mary, the person who was working and let us in, was an incredibly knowledgeable and kind host, she was natural to talk to and her passion for the pieces in the gallery was almost contagious! They also have a grand piano and a chess table, both of which are available for anyone to use. Definitely my favorite Gallery experience in Indiana thus far. P.S. Though it is art, it must be noted that some of Boban's drawings are not the most child friendly.

Working with Gallery Forty Two was even more wonderful than we could have anticipated. We rented the venue unseen from another state for a corporate celebration being held in Indiana, and upon arrival we couldn't have been more pleased. The setting was beautiful, a small but mighty gallery that absolutely elevated our event. Fancy but funky with different styles of art and sculptures throughout provided for an incredible atmosphere. While we waited for guests to arrive they turned on the self playing piano which added to the ambiance. Once we switched to a playlist and opened the bar upstairs it allowed for our guests to mingle, speak, and enjoy each other's company. What truly made our experience was the incredible customer service we experienced with Gallery Forty Two. Planning an event from another state has its challenges, but Linda and Mary had everything handled before we arrived. During the event they knew our needs before we asked, and when we did ask for assistance with bringing out extra chairs or asking for supplies they were quick to handle our requests. Their professionalism and efficiency was incredible, and though these are perhaps things you come to expect from venues, their kindness and grace made working with them one of the best experiences in event planning.
